    I can't argue with you I'll agree but that's basically what these truck dealers like lone mountain and arrow are doing making a extra 20 grand on a lemon truck

    You have to have your authority in place and active at lone mountain when you're ready to sign. Also they told me that you have to show $1,500 in your bank account. She told me they are more concerned with your credit history rather than your actual credit score. In other words, you can't have any missed payments on your credit history.

    Every situation is going to be different. A repo doesn't necessarily mean a guy is a dirtbag who doesn't pay his bills. That is just what the lady told me at lone mountain. They look at your history and not necessarily at your credit score.
    You can get a vehicle repossessed for a number of reasons. If you can legitimately explain why it was repossessed, than it probably won't make a difference. Maybe the guy broke his back and couldn't work for six months. My point is, they just want to see if you pay what you owe, on time!!!

    Large trucking companies buy new trucks with warranty when the warranty ends they sell the trucks then they take the money from the sale of the truck and throw it at a new truck. Then they do it again. Anything that goes wrong with the truck at the large trucking companies there trucks are under warranty they get repaired. engine, after treatment, transmission guess what it's under warranty. They sell everything not just the lemons. Go get a dyno and blow by and get everything else inspected and your good.

    Majority of credit unions and banks won't touch them as stated. Even they know there is such a high attrition level and default rate. Not worth there money
